Peace of Mind After Divorce

Our client, a woman in her 30s, had recently finalised her divorce and wanted to ensure her future financial stability was protected. With no ongoing disputes and an amicable relationship with her ex-spouse, she sought legal advice to formalise their financial separation. The client had heard of others facing lengthy, contentious financial disputes after divorce, and wanted to avoid that path.

The Legal Issue

Although the divorce was complete, the client had not yet addressed the matrimonial finances through a court order. Without a legally binding financial settlement, she remained vulnerable to future claims, even years down the line. To safeguard her position, she approached PSR Solicitors to draft a clean break order.

Thankfully, both parties were in agreement and wanted a clean break. There were no disputes to resolve, which allowed the process to move smoothly and efficiently. PSR Solicitors were instructed to prepare the necessary documentation and submit the order to the court for approval.

Our Role and Legal Approach

Our family law team worked promptly to draft a clean break consent order that accurately reflected the mutual intentions of the parties. We ensured the language was clear, comprehensive, and aligned with court requirements. Once both parties had reviewed and signed the documents, we submitted them to the court, and the order was formally approved.

The Outcome

The approved clean break order now legally protects both individuals from any future financial claims relating to their marriage. For our client, this brought peace of mind and closure, allowing her to move forward with confidence, knowing that her financial independence was secured.

By taking a proactive legal step, the client avoided potential future complications and could focus on rebuilding her life post-divorce without uncertainty hanging over her. She expressed gratitude for the straightforward process and the reassurance that her situation had been handled with care.

Solicitor's Reflections

“The client was grateful for the work we did, and it’s always satisfying to help someone achieve a positive outcome without unnecessary stress. It's a reminder that not all divorce matters have to become contentious — with the right approach, they can be resolved swiftly and amicably.”
